13 going on 30
Watched 13 going on 30 with Siu Fen and Shauna on 31st Aug after a trip down to DHS to visit Ms Koh. Went with Siu Fen and Shauna to heeren and ate at Sakae Sushi before the movie. The movie was alright, but not fantastic. Maybe it would have been if i was 13.
In a nutshell, the movie is abt this 13 year old who always dreamt to be popular, trying to fit in, the usual. Than during her bdae after a trick played on her by the popular group, she wished fervently to be "thirty, flirty and thriving". the lame motto throughout the show. Hmm... why thirty? I tot thirty considered old le? hah. nvm. den she became thirty the next moment, of cuz, as expected. She was this chief editor or some big shot on her dream magazine. She had the most popular girl in high sch as her best friend. She had a movie star or soccer star or wadeva as her boyfriend. Things seemed to be all perfect for her till she realised the package deal. Her best friend actually is backstabbing her and betraying her and everything. She lost touch with her childhood best friend who seems like her only true friend. She is actually this really mean and awful person etc. So when this childhood best friend of hers got married. She wished the same way that she could be 13 again. And she kinda re-wrote her own future.
It was way unrealistic, but kinda romantic and the kinda stuff a 13 year old would love la. Shauna kinda fell asleep half way through it. And she rose her eyebrows when this girl in front of us exclaimed "I cried so many times! It's such a good movie!". hahaha....
But in a sense it made me think a little la. Like that girl realised she had gotten everything she wanted, a prom date with the popular senior, she became the leader of the popular girls, she was prom queen and all that la. But it ended up she was actually "poorer" than she was, before all her "dreams" came true. Its kinda like it doesn mean its perfect if all ur dreams come true. And be careful of what you wish for, it may just come true. haha.
That day met alot of pple. That's the thing with going to town. I saw Geraldine with her ex-cedar friends, kept banging into Alexis who was wif her ex-NYGH frenz. saw Entia, Lu Di and this other girl i forgot her name from NYJC. Saw Zhi Yuan at cineleisure. Met Suzanne on the mrt trip home.
Haha... the last time i went downtown i met with the same situation, met Geraldine and her boyfriend i now realise is my fren's fren. Met ying Ning, Wendy, Mei Jin.... haha... u get the idea.

Jaime's House
Jaime's house is a perfect venue for a horror movie. Its an old condo. VERY VERY old. The lift can hold about 4 people comfortably, and if more than that it would probably be cramped le. The place has rusty metal swings and slides, just like those in horror films. Her house has dark corridors etc that remind me of horror movie scenes. haha...
But it was such a fun day! It was so fun working with Jing Hui, Li Si, Chen Si and Jaime. We were a completely happy team, working without the unhappiness cuz we were all so close frenz anyway. Just lots of laughter, Jaime's mother's homemade pizza, and churning and piecing together of ideas. I felt quite proud of our final product, the design and cover page, dividers and the words, paragraphs we came up with etc. but it was really hard work, alot of effort put in by everybody. And the best part was nobody cared who gets the credit, it was a group effort. =P
But that day i missed church. Cuz i had to rush over. sigh. feel quite bad abt that actually...

My first home visit.
Went for my first home visit today to an aged nursing home at Paya Lebar. It was pretty fun, and we put up performances like mass dance and songs etc for the elderly. The dance practice and learning before today was tiring, like yest danced for an hour plus non stop. and the dance so有活力... the steps so complicated. Then we sang alot of songs, from all time periods and all genres.
Haha. Jia Fen went hyper, singing every single song on the mike. Then we mingled around etc. It was pretty fun. But there was this sad part when we saw this daughter coming to visit her mother at the nursing home. The old woman had waited by the door for almost 15min in her wheelchair when the daughter came in. She greeted her mom, and her son went "ah mah!" very loudly. It was quite a nice scene except the woman left in less than 5min, dragging her son off too. The old woman just sat there. 15min of waiting juz for that "ma." and less than 5 min conversation and a pat on her hand. It was quite painful to watch
It serves as a lesson to us not to do that in future. sigh. Reality bites.

歌词中的心语。
守候
满天星星 你的眼睛
像旧电影反复剪辑我们的回忆
是那颗星 我非常确定
会永远 闪烁在我心里
雨后的夜里 夜空变得好美好干净
眼前的你忽然的沉静
风吹过发际 无声轮廓有一双眼睛
纯洁而透明 我最爱的你 剎那变记忆
温度冷冷地 最怕自己一个人呼吸
穿得再厚 也变得多余
身边少了你 说话只剩空荡的回音
好想抱紧你 我最爱的你 如今在哪里
幸福时候 别来找我
带着你的快乐和他继续往前走
不属于我 我不会难过
我知道 有一样的天空
幸福走后 请记得我
我会紧握拳头把那伤心都赶走
你要记得 至少还有我
一直在 为你默默守候
换日线
拖著沉重的行李 機場廣播的聲音 人們互道再見的表情
回顧手機的訊息 初見面到相戀的痕跡 我怎麼忍心刪去
還想和你看北海道的雪祭 還想陪你走遍這世界風景
你就要往陌生的天空飛去 天知道我會多想你
當飛機越過傷心換日線 天空只留下寂寞無聲的盤旋
時間它能不能倒退一點 停格在晴天笑臉
你的心飛過傷心換日線 今後我們的世界地球各一遍
如果季風能把感覺聯機 要傳達給你說不完的思念
你消失的天空 我凝視了好久 在飄雪的氣候
腦海重複著最後擁抱你的鏡頭 期待再見面時候 更深刻的悸動
actually, i published an exactly same entry in my march blog entries... but this time, its different. These are no longer mere lyrics anymore.

Last day of school for you.
Today felt strangely restless and frustrated. Tried to do my Thomas Hardy Poem Practical Criticism and took 4 50min(200min) periods to finish it. I changed 3 places in LEP room, from one table to another to another. Then went to library to look for ZhangHan when i din wanna be stuck alone with this person in LEP room. He was with Zi Ran there and thus i went off to find a place to continue writing my essay. Changed 4 places in library, upstairs, downstairs, cubicle seat, window seat...Ended up sharing a table wif Yi Ling, my 服装组 grp member. But i just couldn sit down properly or concentrate. My essay was full of cancellations here and there and even the literature reviews i did later on didn't make much sense and were full of cancellations, very unlike my usual work(hahhaa).
Then something cropped up with 《淡马锡文艺》and i got even more irritated and frustrated. Luckily i haf my closest frenz(except Hui min who din come today and i missed her so much!!!) sharing the same irritation and we were like complaining together. Haha. And i finally got to churning out a 3 and a half page lit essay to hand in. Ugh. Used up all my remaining focus and brain cells though. And then i suddenly realised why i was so unhappy and depressed the whole day. Today was the seniors' last day at school, at least until their prelims.
One week without them is enough to make me sad. I never realised till today how big a part of my JC life the seniors make up. They have become so much of me, i will miss them so much! I never realised how much they mean to me and how much i treasure them. Walking into a 空荡荡 LEP room is juz different from the usual seniors taking up all the tables, the whole room full of life and thus, noise. Jokes and comments flying around the room and pple going in and out of LEP room, den the whiteboard becoming a discussion forum, with everyone writing and "chatting" on it, everyone adding a comment when they sit arnd with nothing to do. And monday early lunch won't be the same without the 05/03 girls, like Wan Jing, Ting Ting and Pei Shi. And Si Xian too, though she not 05/03. I always have lunch wif them cuz that period the year 1s all having maths lecture.
And i won't see Marcus, Andy, Ze Hao, Franchie, Yan Xia, Nuriahtu, Shu Jing, Jesslyn, Jing Fen, Shi Rui, Fang Ting around the place le.
And I won't see Wan Jing before fri lit lect when she having lefture in LT4, me in LT3.
And no more 28/03 i've grown so attached to. I'll miss them all so much.
Like the funny Si Xiong, the really nice Yi Yang, my good fren Zhang Han, the gentlemanly Andrew, the cool Qian Cui, the pretty Hui Li, the interesting Jia Yee, the cute Hui Ying, the apple hong-lookalike Shu Xian, the adorable 小白，the sweet Wei Ling, the charming and graceful g00d-singer Zi Ran.... and the rest of 28/03.
See? See how impt they all are to me? sigh.... but i got to see them all today i think. Or at least the ones i am closer to. Andrew was studying in the next table during first period, later saw Zhang han and Zi Ran. Saw Wan Jing and Pei Shi, Ting Ting before my lit lect. Saw Wan Yang after school. Met Yan Xia and Shu Jing at the corridors. Met Franchie and Nuriahtu outside SC room. Saw Andy coming down the "For Nation" spiral stairs and talked to him for sometime. Sat with Andrew, Qian Cui, Hui Li, Si Xiong in LEP room for more than half an hour listening to them crap and also tell me their LEP study tips (haha... Si Xiong was the ultimate. he is so entertaining!). Met Marcus who was gonna go home when i waiting for dad to pick me up. And i wished all of them the best for their prelims. And i told pple like Andy and my 28/03 LEP seniors like Qian Cui etc how much i'll miss them. Qian Cui told me she felt the same way towards her seniors last yr.
Sigh. Only not seeing them for one week, i so sad le. Next year how?????

爱情果。
Mom gave me this fruit she said wuz called 爱情果. I've never tasted this before today. It tasted REALLY sour, so apparently mom said you have to put sugar on the surface, then scoop it up bit by bit. The taste ended up being just nice. Sweet, and sour. And it left me with this really really nice after-taste. It leaves you dwelling on the taste and still unable to get rid of the after-taste. The after-taste is special... and nice. Quite undescribable. Mmmmm....
Then mom said, "now you know why its called 爱情果？"
Apparently love is something like that.
Mom said the fruit lets u 尝到爱情的滋味。
HMMMMmmm....

我不难过，这不算什么，只是为什么眼泪会流，我也不懂。。。
Weird day today.
Fell down after school after i handed 彭老师 my two 创作稿s i'm sending in for the writing competition. I've decided to send both in, afterall wont win, so no need worry abt it being published. Or maybe i was too impulsive and din give it enough though. Ah well. Its with 彭老师 le. Too late. And OOOOPs. U noe the A+ Andrew wrote on my paper the other day? I forgot to erase it off before passing to 彭老师. Oh No. She must be laughing her head off now.
Anyway, back to me falling down. It was horrible atrocious and downright embarrassing. ARGH. I dunno where to hide myself from tomorrow onwards. I pass the papers to 彭老师, left the classroom she and 28/03 was in. And just as the bell rang and 28/03 flooded out of the classroom, i fell flat right in front of them. It was so embarrassing!!!!! Can u imagine me wanting to just find a hole and put my head in? And seriously i did that. Not on purpose of cuz, i banged my head against the brick wall when i fell down. Like it wasn't hilarious enough. ARGH. I am such a joker i amuse myself. The seniors must be laughing like crazy. Though i din hear laughter then.
Then Yi Yang appeared in front of me (the 28/03 senior Yi Yang, not the yr1 Yi Yang). Like seriously his face just shifted right in front of me. Than he asked if i was ok and asked me to open my eyes to let him check. Afterall he is first aid one. Then he helped me up and Jia Yee, Wei Ling and Jie Ying all from 28/03 came and helped me too. 彭老师 told them to bring me to the nearest classroom and sat me down. Than Jia Yee asked if i was ok and was really really really nice abt the whole thing. Somehow someone asked what happened to me, and Jia Yee replied in a super sympathetic voice, "Oh, she banged her head against the wall." Which sounded so hilarious i started laughing. At myself. Whilst tears ran down my face. But i WAS NOT crying. I was just tearing. tearing alot. Cannot stop. There is a difference.
After that Yi yang called his junior and went around the school to help me find medcine etc. I had to go for ex-co meeting. And Pei Shan got me a water bottle filled with water cooler water since she couldn find ice. There was some swelling, but it was v painful. And somehow i cut my hand and sprained my finger. But whatever. I was so embarrassed! Then later i went back to LEP room to see if Yi Yang found the medicine, and met Chen Si, Li Si on the way. And i told them the story. Then stupid me started TEARING again. Not cry kae. Then Yi Yang came and asked if i felt better and he said into his phone "Ok. Casualty on the way to sick bay." and he asked me to go sick bay to get medicine. Me, Chen Si and Li Si started laughing, and when Chen Si and me got to sick bay, there were two girls looking around, for the 'casualty'. Chen Si and me told them, "Yeah. the casualty ur senior said is here."
In the end. I still din get medcine. But nvm. After my entire B.O.D meeting. Yi Yang appeared again, i told him still haven get medicine and he went to look for his junior again. haha. So we stayed in the sick bay for some time while he looked for some diskette in the cupboard and his junior helped me put some medicine and plaster etc. Apparently it looked weird, so after he couldn find his diskette, he came off the chair and helped me stick the plaster on again. hahaha... Then we walked over to LEP block together for him to put his science apparatus into his locker, and then we went home together.
I realised Yi Yang stays very near me! 3 bus stops away only! No wonder i saw him on the same bus the other time after LEP camp. Haha. And he is actually really nice. As in, of cuz, i knew he was nice before la... Haha. Then he showed me his LEP exam questions and his prelims exam time table etc and we talked alot la. And he kept asking me if i felt better le. haha. It was really nice of him today. And i now know why 28/03 says Yi yang is Andrew's twin. Not only do they look kinda alike. Its not their looks which are most alike, really. Their actions, the way they talk etc, their little habits are all very similar.
Thanks Yi Yang!
And Jia Yee! And Wei Ling. And Jie Ying.
Oh. And today Mdm Goh was taking attendance beside me at morning assembly. Then later she called my parents and said she din see me. HUH? Then i went to see her and told her, "Hello. I am here." And told her i was in front of hui Min today at assembly. And she said oh, she din see Hui min either. WAD?? SHe talked to Hui Min for goodness sake! She's blind. And i'm invisible. She told my parents and grandmother i am very well-behaved and very good everything... she prob juz donno me. that person. She never remembers me. Which is good really. Pros more than cons.

Then he helped me up and Jia Yee, Wei Ling and Jie Ying all from 28/03 came and helped me too. 彭老师 told them to bring me to the nearest classroom and sat me down. Than Jia Yee asked if i was ok and was really really really nice abt the whole thing. Somehow someone asked what happened to me, and Jia Yee replied in a super sympathetic voice, "Oh, she banged her head against the wall." Which sounded so hilarious i started laughing. At myself. Whilst tears ran down my face. But i WAS NOT crying. I was just tearing. tearing alot. Cannot stop. There is a difference.
After that Yi yang called his junior and went around the school to help me find medcine etc. I had to go for ex-co meeting. And Pei Shan got me a water bottle filled with water cooler water since she couldn find ice. There was some swelling, but it was v painful. And somehow i cut my hand and sprained my finger. But whatever. I was so embarrassed! Then later i went back to LEP room to see if Yi Yang found the medicine, and met Chen Si, Li Si on the way. And i told them the story. Then stupid me started TEARING again. Not cry kae. Then Yi Yang came and asked if i felt better and he said into his phone "Ok. Casualty on the way to sick bay." and he asked me to go sick bay to get medicine. Me, Chen Si and Li Si started laughing, and when Chen Si and me got to sick bay, there were two girls looking around, for the 'casualty'. Chen Si and me told them, "Yeah. the casualty ur senior said is here."
In the end. I still din get medcine. But nvm. After my entire B.O.D meeting. Yi Yang appeared again, i told him still haven get medicine and he went to look for his junior again. haha. So we stayed in the sick bay for some time while he looked for some diskette in the cupboard and his junior helped me put some medicine and plaster etc. Apparently it looked weird, so after he couldn find his diskette, he came off the chair and helped me stick the plaster on again. hahaha... Then we walked over to LEP block together for him to put his science apparatus into his locker, and then we went home together.
I realised Yi Yang stays very near me! 3 bus stops away only! No wonder i saw him on the same bus the other time after LEP camp. Haha. And he is actually really nice. As in, of cuz, i knew he was nice before la... Haha. Then he showed me his LEP exam questions and his prelims exam time table etc and we talked alot la. And he kept asking me if i felt better le. haha. It was really nice of him today. And i now know why 28/03 says Yi yang is Andrew's twin. Not only do they look kinda alike. Its not their looks which are most alike, really. Their actions, the way they talk etc, their little habits are all very similar.
Thanks Yi Yang!
And Jia Yee! And Wei Ling. And Jie Ying.
Oh. And today Mdm Goh was taking attendance beside me at morning assembly. Then later she called my parents and said she din see me. HUH? Then i went to see her and told her, "Hello. I am here." And told her i was in front of hui Min today at assembly. And she said oh, she din see Hui min either. WAD?? SHe talked to Hui Min for goodness sake! She's blind. And i'm invisible. She told my parents and grandmother i am very well-behaved and very good everything... she prob juz donno me. that person. She never remembers me. Which is good really. Pros more than cons.

Long piece of lecture. To myself.
My day went alright, up and den rapidly down.
nvm if u dunno wad i'm toking abt.
u're not supposed to noe anyway.
U knoe, i envy those pple who can keep everything to themselves and remain a mystery to everybody. Whereas stupid me is so open with my frenz i probably got back stabbed and betrayed so many times i'm dead. Well, u noe, i lost my trust in pple for 4 years. I recently gained it back. I really hope i can keep it that way and cont. to build it up.
These NTU pple came and gave us a talk abt 中文系in their Uni. Well, sounds good. But then again, i'm not a big fan of NTU. And not juz cuz of the "No-one on the surface of campus" thing. I just don like it la. And i got this 缘 with NUS that started the moment i was born (hahaha... i was born in NUH.). I attended NUS child care centre and spent all my time then in my mom's neuro-pharmacology lab at the medcine faculty of NUS looking at those test tubes and all the pple in white lab coats were my only friends... And those post-grad students always came to entertain me and play with the 3 year old me. haha. Well, it wuz weird how i din turn out to be a science student. And that i'll never get to enter the same place i grew up in as a medcine student. But still, if i stayed in S'pore for Uni. It'll most prob be NUS. Hmmm... i dunno la, the talk today wavered me a bit. But only A BIT.
Sat down with Jaime on the big steps in front of pizza hut after we've had dinner together. We talked for some time. It's always nice talking to the few of them. Jaime included. We talked abt alot of things. And the thing i remembered most was the book of our life. The album recording our life. What would you see when you flip through it? From day one of your life to today, all that has happened... but more importantly, the blank pages waiting to be filled. What will you fill it with? I'm only 17, the album is not even half filled. Hmm. I probably would cry for one whole year if i go relive all that pain in my 17 years of life once again. They all seem a big deal to me. Maybe cuz they make up who i am today.
Then again, is it true u become numb when you grow older? You no longer experience the ecstasy u get, u don feel the immense hurt and sadness that make your eyes well up with tears, the pain you get from betrayl. When you've experience too much, you get numb. You lose your feelings, they get diluted and you no longer see the big deal. You won't understand why your daughter is so happy over some little thing, you don't get why your son is so hurt and sad over a trivial matter. You've grown up, you've seen the world. You are now blunt. You are now an adult. An adult which feels that being ecstatic and being over emotional is childish behavior. I seriously beg to differ. But who knows, twenty years from now i may be the same blunt, unfeeling adult without knowing.
Each experience constitutes who you are. Every detail crafts you. Which is why i believe God makes everything in my life happen for a reason. Its to make me stronger, to let me learn certain lessons. Blows are to wake me up from slumber, like an alarm clock. My life is planned, by God, in the best way ever possible. Because only he can know what is the best. That's why i love God. He cares for even the smallest being, the tiniest, most insignificant detail and feature. He made the world work so flawlessly, he made everything for a reason. He made everything perfect. He made the universe, he rules the universe, but her cares about me. He cares so much about me he died for me. What love is greater than that? Why the Kings of Kings love me and the world so, i will never understand. Its pure grace that i got saved. I can never do enough to repay the debt of sin. But God payed it for me. He just payed everything for me and pulled me out from the penalty of sin. For nothing. He doesn ask for anything. In today's context, i got his gift of salvation for free. In economics context... nvm. (heh.)
The thing is. i just felt so thankful i dunno why. I am just so tahnkful for all he has done. And i feel so guilty for being unable to do anything for him. I feel guilty for back sliding. I feel guilty for forgetting all these. It happens when you have so much in your life, in your mind, the image of christ gets blocked. Like Pei Hua Lao shi said. So far, so distant, and there's a jungle in the middle of you and God.
sigh. i talk too much. and i talk no sense. i don even understand myself. I just wanna say THANKS, God. For everything everything everything in my life. If i really count my blessings from God from the day i was born, i wont have enough space to store them in my com. And it'll probably hang and i don even have a back-up copy. Hmm... actually i do. I have one in my mind. One that will alway be there.

shoes and shopping malls.
argh. my feet still hurt very very badly cuz of those stupid high-heeled court shoes. U see, my own court shoes (i bought in when i wuz in SEC ONE, when i needed it for band.) dont fit me anymore (i lent them to shu Jun and recently juz got them back, and thus juz realised.). So, when Auntie Julie gave me a pair of court shoes, i was very happy. No need for a shopping trip for shoes now. Well, they were a bit too high, but hey, i will only be wearing it for a while ya? Not so simple. I measured the heel juz now. It's 3 inch high. That thing is deadly, it should be banned. My feet ached with each step. ARGH, i yelped with pain with each step, and complained to everyone i see that day abt it. haha. I was walking fine in front of everyone else, smiling and looking ahead happily, like i wear 3 inch high heels every single day of my life. But when wif my own B.O.D members and my senior B.O.D, i juz go "Ouch!" with each step.
Sigh. Looks like a shopping trip has to be planned ASAP. I need new court shoes that wont kill me each time i wear them. And somehow i have a feeling i'll need those shoes many times in my term of office. Hmm... all those functions at hotels, those more formal events etc...
Sunday, i went touring Singapore. Seriously. And i complained that Singapore is small. I was so wrong. I haven been to Bukit Batok before sunday. I havent even finished seeing all of Singapore, what right do i have to say that it is small? So i travelled from Queestown (church) to Bukit Batok, den back to Tampines, than to Parkway Parade before heading home. With aching feet cuz of the saturday court shoes thing. Rawr. I met Chia Yi's HC classmate, Zhen Yuan at B.B shopping centre though. (its a shopping centre at B.B, i dunno wad its really called.) Hmm... and he remembers me. How nice. He went "Oh, chia yi's friend? we met at City Hall right?" haha... that means he remembers, right?
And i think i should try not to go alone on shopping trips. U see, a trip to buy 1 book can turn out to a spending spree, when at the end of the day i realised i've bought 3 books, instead of one. And had to spend money on lunch, alone. So sad rite? Lunch alone. sigh. but nvm. Anyway, the thing is, everytime i decide to go buy something on my own, i end up buying alot of other somethings. Like if i enter a book store, i would see alot of new books other than the one i wan to buy and cant decide which to buy. If i enter a CD shop, i would spend half the day deciding whether to buy or not. And if i happen to walk past a clothes shop or a food stall, i would be tempted to stop and look, and in the event of a food stall, i would want to buy a snack or something. argh. ok. Next time i go out shopping, i'm getting someone else to come along. And i should avoid food places, CD shops, Book stores, gift shops, clothes stores etc. But if u think abt it, that's about all there is in a shopping mall.
Thank goodness life is so busy i have no time to stroll in shopping malls often.
I finished all my 3 novels in one day. now i've run out of reads again. argh.

Finally, a better day?
Investiture day. I shall not talk abt the hiccups and make myself stressed up all over again. Its over. that's wad matters. i was so tensed up and so afraid of laughing halfway thru or something, i never once looked at the audience. Esp the 22nd B.O.D. hahaha... with my head down, i could see Marcus's irritating foot tapping tapping tapping. rawr!
never mind. its over. i din laugh. almost, once, but it was induction and i wuz at the back. But i think my year 3 senior, Jessica saw me. hahah... nvm.
After rushing here and there, i finally got to meet Jaime and Jun Jie. Jun Jie is this guy i first met at Hwa Chong carnival when he is doing traffic control. His surname happens to be Lin. Haha. He is Jaime's good fren, the brother-brother kinda pal and he's a really nice guy. He also acted in 黄成's <七彩爱情>. yeah. Just now when jaime went to get us drinks, we talked a little, den later a bit here and dere. he's a great guy la, seriously. haha.. nice to talk to, hang out with etc.
After dinner with them, we went to HC and i we were almost late. OOps. My fault, cuz i left sch late, or rather, behing scheduled time. Which was...
7:30am-8:30am 《红楼梦》lesson.
8:30am-9:30am Breakfast (Din eat in the end cuz buy flowers for tchers)
9:30am-10:15am Meeting with B.O.D
10:15am-11:00am Decorations.
11:00am-11:15am Induction ceremony B.O.D rehersal
11:15am-1:00pm Decorations.
1:00pm-2:30pm Final run-thru
2:30pm Photographer arrives, to be briefed. Everything to be ready.
3:00pm-4:15pm Investiture
4:15pm-4:30pm Reception.
4:30pm-5:15pm Travelling time to Anchorpoint
5:15pm-6:45pm Dinner and Shop for stuff needed
6:45pm-7:10pm Travel to Hwa Chong
7:10pm-7:15pm Be seated etc
7:15pm-10:00pm 歌谣节
10:00pm-11:30pm Get home.
Haha. sorry Jaime, Jun Jie!
Anyway, 歌谣 was great. There's this guy who has a really nice voice. 会被他歌声所感动。He performed two songs, both were great. I love the song 《爱到这里》 lyrics. He wrote it. Then another song was special and really really good. Lyrics good, melody good, performing good. The title was 《毒苹果》. But its really really nice. It won most popular song. And it should win. That guy really deserves it. He sang first verse only i wanna 掉眼泪了。。。
Then came all the alumni performance, which were all really good too. Than was this LEP girl, who is supposedly this HC 才女。In music la. Having won alot of very prestigious competitions etc. She sang her own composition and a Sun yan Zi song. I seriously think she got her own style and her style is can fight with Sun yan Zi wan lo. She is GOOD.
Tay Ping Hui appeared next. He went on stage, put his guitar on a stand and my first reaction was "他的guitar跟他一样，只是拿来摆美？". Haha. But this guy is smart. He knew not alot of the audience likes him. So his first sentence to us was "I think hwa Chong Junior College should still be Hwa Chong Junior College." That won majority of the audience over, judging from the loud applause and cheers. haha. including me and Jaime. He made us sit up (a little). He played Harmonica and Guitar, so maybe he isn that completely good for nothing as we thought, although he is not really good either. But that's not the point, you see. His performance was entertaining. Just like Soon Kiat and Alexis, the emcees for the night. They were really lame and crappy, but funny la. And they were like bickering in front of Tay Ping Hui. Gosh. hahahahaha.......
Enjoyed myself on the whole. Although i am so tired and drained!!!! No energy left le! And i haven recovered from that headache i got this afternoon cuz i too stressed up abt being installed as part of the B.O.D in front of a quite full LT1 and having to sit first row on the stage almost through-out the whole thing, right smack in the middle. Dunno why. got a really bad headache the whole day after that. Eunice and i got a bit fever too. She also headache. rawr~ maybe too stressed, too nervous, too worried abt what WILL happen but din happen, or maybe just the unbearable heat.
argh, cant stand it le. gotta go sleep. if not i'm gonna konk out tomorrow at church. The headache's getting worse by the minute. nite!

Out of sorts.
hmmm. melancholic day. STILL outta sorts. haha. have a feeling it wont get better any time soon. sigh...
Today, hmmm... Jaime left her chemistry notes in LEP room, so i went looking for her classroom, 218, which i dunno where it is. hahaha... i know, i slow, so long in TJ still lousy at navigation and ALWAYS losing my way. argh. Then i follow the classrooms from 212 onwards to find 218. Haha. Than turns out she din need the chem notes, though she having chem tutorial. But haha. how was i supposed to noe rite?
Lunch was wif the CCC pple in sch canteen cuz it was raining heavily... cant go opposite. But it was fun and i really enjoyed it. haha... almost seemed like lu yuan times and everything. But i guess things have changed, whether i accept it or not.
Did deco all the way wif Stanley and Arthur till 7:00pm plus... Yen Mei helped alot too, and Vivien, Esmond, Linus, Gabriel, Jia Fen, Yuan Ping. Thanks!!! Wanted to get Ze Hao's help, but he got remedial and it seemed really bad to ask the seniors to help, since their As are like juz round the corner. And even the slackest year 2 is mugging like siao le. (No special reference to any senior.*grinz*) I'm sure they all can do well wan la. They wont let TJ down rite??? (Haha... no stress, seniors.)
Turns out the programme booklets Ms Soh printed, all wrongly aligned, but this time not our fault, but her fault. Haha. so had to re-do everything, but it took so much courage to go tell Ms Wong abt it. we did it in the end and she was super nice abt it. Even when i told her can we reprint all 100 copies of the 22nd 22rd B.O.D cuz Marcus name got cut off, she said ok la. hahah. which is like, whew. haha... couldn be unfair to our senior rite...?
Later went for dinner wif Yen Mei, Arthur, Stanley, Vivien at a very sad place. At least sad for me la. A lot of not so sweet memories. Felt so stone and more depressed just being there. argh. Happen to see Shang Wei there, wad a suprise! Haha... But it wasn enough to make me stop thinking abt the past. sigh. i hate all this nostalgic stuff. makes me worse. argh. don talk abt it le.
Now here, stoning, i hope tomorrrow investiture goes great. at least without those hiccups. And that i can meet Jaime in time. haha. we are going shopping for prizes for a writing competition before we go down to hwa Chong. And i wanna buy a book. yay!! Cant wait to see Soon Kiat, Alexis they all again! Hopefully it will make me happy, even for that night only. But gotta lug my court shoes, college blazer and i will be wearing stockings, i juz remembered. GEEZ. this is bad... argh.
[... i never want to see him again... do i..?]

Wanted to get Ze Hao's help, but he got remedial and it seemed really bad to ask the seniors to help, since their As are like juz round the corner. And even the slackest year 2 is mugging like siao le. (No special reference to any senior.*grinz*) I'm sure they all can do well wan la. They wont let TJ down rite??? (Haha... no stress, seniors.)
Turns out the programme booklets Ms Soh printed, all wrongly aligned, but this time not our fault, but her fault. Haha. so had to re-do everything, but it took so much courage to go tell Ms Wong abt it. we did it in the end and she was super nice abt it. Even when i told her can we reprint all 100 copies of the 22nd 22rd B.O.D cuz Marcus name got cut off, she said ok la. hahah. which is like, whew. haha... couldn be unfair to our senior rite...?
Later went for dinner wif Yen Mei, Arthur, Stanley, Vivien at a very sad place. At least sad for me la. A lot of not so sweet memories. Felt so stone and more depressed just being there. argh. Happen to see Shang Wei there, wad a suprise! Haha... But it wasn enough to make me stop thinking abt the past. sigh. i hate all this nostalgic stuff. makes me worse. argh. don talk abt it le.
Now here, stoning, i hope tomorrrow investiture goes great. at least without those hiccups. And that i can meet Jaime in time. haha. we are going shopping for prizes for a writing competition before we go down to hwa Chong. And i wanna buy a book. yay!! Cant wait to see Soon Kiat, Alexis they all again! Hopefully it will make me happy, even for that night only. But gotta lug my court shoes, college blazer and i will be wearing stockings, i juz remembered. GEEZ. this is bad... argh.
[... i never want to see him again... do i..?]

Depression hits again.
another day has passed. Today my free periods is 3 times my lessons. But i still feeling pretty out of sorts. sigh. its nobody's fault, really. But lately will suddenly feel like shutting up and juz don feel like saying anything to anyone. I dunno, as if afraid i'll say something wrong. Or... i dunno, i'm juz so not myself lor. Kinda unwell, kinda sick, i really hope this period of time of go quickly. i hate the way i am now. so weird. so... weird.
It might be depression.
It might be that i feel so lost and detached from my B.O.D.
It might be that i juz feel sick.
It might be that i miss alot of pple.
It might be that i haven seen David for quite some time.
It might be that i am stressed up.
It might be that i juz don seem to get enough rest no matter how long i sleep.
It might be that my mind is constantly full of stuff.
It might be that i am worrying abt my promos.
It might be that i am thinking of "wad next?".
It might be trying to forget some unforgettable stuff.
It might be trying to avoid some unavoidable pple.
It might be the irritation PW causes.
It might be Maggie Goh Liew Lian.
It might be econs.
It might be the general stress environment TJ offers.
It might be my cousins.
It might be my bro's PSLE.
It might be the fear of letting everybody down in something i do wrong.
It might be that alot of pple in my sub-com are not free now.
It might be that i left my B.O.D notebook in sch and cant contact more helpers.
It might be how i juz feel so down at times for no obvious reason.
It might be the fear of something during investiture going wrong.
It might be how i feel unhappy wif stuff but i juz go "nothing." when pple ask.
It might be that somehow my computer decides to have problems now.
It might be how i cant seem to find someone to talk to abt stuff.
It might be that i have a million contacts on my hp, yet don dare to call anyone.
It might be that i cant join the whole TJ LEP to this 龙应台 talk at NTU that is so 千载难逢, but i have LEO investiture on the same day and i have to give that up. And i am the ONLY one that have to give up, the rest were excused cuz they not in B.O.D.
It might be all of the above. argh.
Actually when its in words, i suddenly see how much weight i've put on myself and what i am actually putting myself thru, and how i am slowly suffocating under these stuff. Bogging my mind with all of these and MORE is not healthy. In fact, its giving me breathing probs and i already have asthma. But somehow i cant push these away. At least not now. And i'm quite sure even if these cluttered stuff clear up, new things will pop up and take their space and continue to suffocate me. I am such an idiot and get stressed up so easily. Cannot even handle stuff properly and cant do things well. Even one pathetic programme booklet had to make changes dunno how many million times and die die ms wong also got fault to find with it.
I am living in my own dreamworld and the dreams now are all sad dreams. keep remembering sad stuff, keep recalling sad memories whenever i walk pass a familiar spot in sch. like i graduating and leaving le, the kinda sad, melancholic mood. sigh. why am i like dat??????????
Help me.
Talk to me.
要哭都哭不出来。

My today.
today was weird. also dunno wad to sae. Just weird. I was feeling very sick and super tired at the start of the day. Even Louisa who saw me asked if i was ok, cuz my face looked so pale. Felt like dying every passing minute. argh. Den later, tension in class rose and i understood wad ppl mean by PW ruin friendships. And i'm sorry but i was super irritated someone made my friend cry. sorry, but couldn u at least apologize or something?? I mean, hello??? Thats your classmate!! That incident made me kinda depressed. I tink it was partly cuz i knew it was a matter of time my grp became like that. and guarding against it happening is hard, seeing how things are. I hate PW. argh.
Then later went to LEP during my free period and got my things, went downstairs to finish writing some letters of reply. Finally came upstairs and started talking to Yi Yang and Andrew. The 28/03 guys never fail to cheer me up. They are so funny and so nice to be around. haha... don 想歪, out of 5 the 3 that i am on talking terms with are attached. haha. Then Yi Yang had to go for physics, which Andrew dropped le, so i started talking to Andrew. Been quite a long time since i sat down and talk to him. Ever since...绿园。Last time the whole cast + me use to sit together for meals mah, and before/after 排戏 and also he always 陪 me to alot of places and we got quite alot of free periods to sit in 会所 to crap. haha. So i showed him my 创作 and he jokingly graded me with an A+. haha... thanks, Andrew. For the A+. =)
Then came the phototaking of 校园新闻。It was really funny! We sat on the grass patch beside LEP block and posed to pictures while the class having lesson can see us. Half way thru phototaking, 彭老师 was seen staring at us from the window, with an amused expression on her face =) It was really funny.
After that I had to find someone to go wif me to buy the deco materials. Kee Liang and Arthur actually said they can go wif me. But in the end i got Li Si to go with me. Chen Si, Li Si and i took bus to interchange together, crapping all the way. haha... and the "shopping" trip with Li Si was fun and she was really nice and everything, keep helping me carry my stuff when she see that i cant handle le. haha... thankew lisi!!!!!
After that when i got home, it was 4plus and i haven had LUNCh. after wolfing down some food, i was so tired i quickly bathed and juz went to sleep. Woke up only now, to do my investiture programme booklet again. sigh. when will all these end?? argh. And i haven finish buying my materials, coz some out of stock. Tomorrow have to go again. But tomorrow have the rehersal with the senior B.O.D. How??? Will be until v late eh... Friday my lessons end at 5:30 where got energy left to go buy stuff??? ARGH.
But overall, the day ended on the good note. whew. I would hate it if the day ended with me still feeling horrible. =P Cheers everyone.

今天的古文.
Ms Pow is leaving. Or rather, Yee Lin is leaving. She doesn like us calling her Ms Pow, i remember Peng Juay telling me. I dunno her as well as Peng Juay, Arthur they all... but i know she's real nice. She visits us quite alot of times, she's always full of encouragement and i really think she's a cool person. I think we'll all miss her. Esp her own b.O.D. Yee Lin, when u come back during vacations, come visit us at TJ k!!! =)
Talk about visitng... today this group of china exchange pple came to visit our LEP block while we were having 古文. They were all looking into the classroom and we all felt like zoo animals. Some more the window pane so wide and the window grille looks like the jail type pattern. haha.
And u noe today's 古文 lesson, when i went in (late cuz i went to see Ms Wong), i saw 张老师。argh. why still him??? Was talking to Si Xian today during lunch and she also super pity us. Cuz the year twos din get him for 古文。 She said his personality already like 古文 le, teach 古文 confirm cannot make it. Will make everyone sleep. sigh. just our luck. And now we're gonna get him for 古文 too.
quite usual day. Mood... leaning to the depressing side. sigh. still haven gotten over those little storms änd rain that has been disturbing me these few days. Jie's e-mails cheered me up a bit though. Cant wait to see her. =P

(I learnt from a friend today that the person that can cheer you up is the exact person that made you cry.)
(I also learn that it is true that out of 10 times a girl cries, 9 and a half times its because of the same person, the 他. The half times left is also due to relationships, only its the other people in your life.)

The Jap students wearing those blazers with ALOT of badges on them. And they still have about a million in their bags and only din put those on too cuz its too heavy. gee.

Emotional Roller Coaster
Today was an emotional day. Cuz pple kept talking abt emotional things. Emotions ran high. By the end of the day, all the girls in the b.o.d who were present at lunch were crying. A series of touching, sad, depressing topics arose amongst the girls. Than later Kee Liang gave each of us a personalized envelope. Inside was a photo of him and his brother, as babies. It was so cute. And he wrote messages on the back of the photos. He prepared 11. Each with a different baby photo. With 2 babies looking completely similar even HE couldn tell who was who (he and his twin brother.) But the whole thing was so sweet Eunice started tearing. Everyone was so touched, esp when he said "What is inside matters alot to me. Just like each and everyone of u." He even designed each envelope with colourful markers all by himself. The thought was so sweet it was enough for us to oversee the kindergarten cute drawings and chubby bubble wordings. It was SO SWEET. ARGH. So touched.
Than we all went out to Town to watch this MJ charity dance street show. It was quite a fun afternoon. saw quite a lot of pple like my sec sch mates, lots of NY, TJ pple... We also saw this human statue, which was this guy standing there not moving one inch, and it was really quite real. As in the statue looked really like a statue. Peng Juay, kee Liang and Arthur trying to make the guy laugh. Then Peng Juay said maybe we should just take the money pple donated to him in his hat. Probably then, he'll come after us or something. hahaha.... Its just so Peng Juay to say that. He's so funny everytime i listen to him, i will laugh. Then me, Kee Liang and Yen Mei went to PS spotlight to shop for my decoration stuff. Wah. Things are ex. Don dare to buy without Ms Wong (Head Faculty advisor) and Euníce's approval (the treasurer). Geez. Then saw ALOT of our sch pple wif their boyfriends and girlfriends at town. Haha. There was this guy with a RJ girlfriend, a classmate with her boyfriend....
Btw. Heard something from Peng Juay that is quite cute. He was telling us, his left brain has nothing right, and his right brain has nothing left. har har. As usual... Peng Juay all over again.
He never fails to amuse me.
Maybe i'm just easily amused.

done and died
My 《乔厂长上任记》test is a total goner. not that the qn was hard, really, but like Li Si, i studied the wrong 人物. argh. oh well. wadz done cannot be undone. Than i rushed home to help my bro wif his PSLE oral tomorrow. Than xin ru kept saying i was very sweet and dat it was very heart warming to buy food for him etc. argh. Why am i always doing things for him?
Btw, my programme booklet after rushing like siao last nite, is COMPLETED. I mean, it will be if Ms Wong approves it la. Andy met us this morning outside G.O and he said it wuz nice and innovative and un-conventional, unlike wad has been the same pattern for last 10 boards. haha. Kee Liang and Cai Lin both liked it. And Cai Lin fought for me when Ms Wong asked why its like dat. haha... u see, her mind is kinda set and square. haha. only Cai lin can insist on her stand. i love her for datz. =P
Ok. Tomorrow got tracting. Should i go??? No one to go wif. sigh. so sianz. Are any of u going??

Clique-ing away...
The other day we had our first 《茶馆》 lesson, den the tcher was telling us abt the background info. And abt how foreign countries forced china to sign agreements to 割让土地 to them. Den we said if that happened to Singapore, we'll be touring the world every day we go home from sch (my fren lives in choa chu kang)cuz Bedok would be under England, Kembangan under USA, Town under Singapore, Clementi under France and Choa Chu kang under Russia. We figured that's how around the world in 80 days came abt... budden the way the teacher said it made it real funny. China won the battle, but still paid the foreign countries money and gave them land. It doesn make sense. U fight a bully, u win, pinning him to the ground. Then u take out money and your sweets and give them to him. HUH?
Than on Tuesday, i had PW meeting and my PW group members and i were talking abt unity in our class over lunch. Haha. Our class isn united. Not really la, though it isn THAT divided either. But we tink the main reason's that our class is largely (ok. only 1 and 1/2 guys and 20something girls) made up of girls. And girls tend to move in cliques. Which is why our class is so cliquey. And so not united. haha. Not that it was a mystery before. Then we started listing the cliques... and we realise the cliques are rather clearly defined...
Gladys, Geraldine, Siu Fen, Shauna clique.
Anime clique - Tissina, Esther, Yvonne, Miak(cuz of Yvonne.), Kai Leng, Zhi Yuan
Anti-social clique - Gilbert
Yong Ernn, Shee Mun, Grace clique (when in class inclusive of me and Hui Min.)
Halimah, Yvonne, Laura, An Ru clique
Councillor clique - Xin Ru
TKGS clique - Wan Li, Denise, Fiona
The 讲华语 clique - me and Hui Min
Then the LEP pple other than me and Hui Min usually move alone. cuz of the difference in time table. So the cliques above only apply in class. Then me in LEP class got the Jaime, Li Si, Chen Si, Hui Min clique too. Hmmmmm.... Looks like we're stuck together. We are Friends Forever with our cliques. Inpenetratable cliqes. This is part of the girl power thing bah. Girls stick like uhu glue with their cliques.
But then again. My class. 3204. Hmm... we kinda talk to each other too. At times we leave our cliques, maybe for a second, to connect with pple from other cliques who happen to leave their cliques for the same second too. Like me and Kai Leng, for example. We get along well. We can talk. Me and Xin Ru. We do talk abt stuff.
Hmmm... maybe this class unity, class spirit thing might still be possible afterall.

创作来自你。
独角戏 － 许茹云
是谁导演这场戏 在这孤单角色里
对白总是自言自语 对手都是回忆
看不出什么结局
自始至终全是你 让我投入太彻底
故事如果注定悲剧 何苦给我美丽
演出相聚和别离
没有星星的夜里 我用泪光吸引你
既然爱你不能言语 只能微笑哭泣
让我从此忘了你
没有星星的夜里我把往事留给你
如果一切只是演戏 要你好好看戏
心碎只是我自己
This is a nice song with really really nice lyrics. =P
一千零一夜 － 邰正霄
她总是不言不语 黄昏等到天微明
拨弄着怀中那把无弦琴
寂寞里秋来春去 诺言随风都飘零
梦中人还是没悄来一点消息
一千零一夜 没有一夜不思念
每一份想念 化做不成双的蝶
一千零一夜 没有一夜不流泪
流到心里面变成雪
那一夜一场大雨 园里的花落满地
那是他为她种的金线菊
当有人劝她放弃 她会微笑看着你
手心中紧紧握着发黄的回忆
一千零一夜 夜夜看到她思念 究竟谁让她
有那么忧郁的脸 一千零一夜
夜夜听她流泪 知道该怎么去安慰
是真心都疼真心 让我就从今夜起
在身边为她轻唱温暖的旋律
oH Thanks huimin!!!! i got it.
遇见
惊讶是每一次在人群中看见你那一刻的感觉
犹豫是不知道应该不应该跟你打招呼的矛盾
紧张是我们无意中走向对方，我心中的扑通乱跳
失望是你没有意识到我就在旁边，与你擦肩而过的不舍
羞涩是当你的目光在茫茫人海中停留在我身上的喜悦
兴奋是目光交汇的那一刻，你的脸上绽放出那一瓦特的微笑
感动是被隐藏在我的微笑背后的一滴泪水
茫然是压抑了一切激动情趣，跟你说‘嗨’的语气
轻松是你回应‘嗨’的时候附加的那个微笑
伤心是这一切结束后，下来一整天的心情写照
逃避是因为不想再经过这整个过程
盼望是因为我还想再见到你。

是谁导演这场戏 在这孤单角色里
对白总是自言自语 对手都是回忆
看不出什么结局
自始至终全是你 让我投入太彻底
故事如果注定悲剧 何苦给我美丽
演出相聚和别离
没有星星的夜里 我用泪光吸引你
既然爱你不能言语 只能微笑哭泣
让我从此忘了你
没有星星的夜里我把往事留给你
如果一切只是演戏 要你好好看戏
心碎只是我自己

Oh where oh where is my photographer?
sigh. still cant find investiture photographer. Jia Yee found me her junior, Elin, but she also last min cannot make it. Sigh. Qian cui got a compulsory talk that day, cant make it either. how????? Gladys? haha, will she help?
I cut my hair. hahahah. so long nv cut le. But the length never change. hahaha.... just thinned it. but Singapore still as hot, not much use.
Only 1 day back in school and i am super stressed up le. Maybe cuz today i very very very very tired. I dunno why either, i slept earlier than usual last nite eh. Econs lect i fighting to keep awake cuz i finally found an econs lect i understand. Was reading the 《药》原文 in LEP room and spent like 20mins cuz i kept dozing off. Now so tired, and getting a headache, but cant sleep, have to do investitute booklet. And i dun really noe how to move the text around... and i wan landscape but in a different way. ARGH, i need serious help. Then i gotta collate the PW interviews by tomorrow. And i got no free periods tomorrow at all to do these. And i need to study for 《药》 cuz today din have time to test. And i got econs DRQ and MCQ tomorrow or fri too... and 《侨厂长上任记》test on fri, the most lengthy and boring 小说 which i am least interested in.
argh. I am suffocating again. And hey, its only 1 day lor. sigh.
There was this talk on NS and defence thingy that almost lasted 2 hrs. Suprisingly, it wasn dry and boring. It was quite fun and very interesting. We watched many videos of life in NS and the importance of NS and this senior of ours from 03/01, who is now this officer figure, came back to talk to us and joined the panel of discussion etc. 1 senior officer from Air Force, one NS officer (the senior), 1 mám from SAFTI answered questions. The whole thing was done in a play format, and there was this irritating, sickly sweet acting-as-couple couple. They cant keep their hands off each other and keep distracting the audience by hitting each other playfully, or the girl whining or yucks. its just so boliao. And the girl cant even act properly, quite fake.
But i learnt how important NS is, and how great all the NS guys are. Never saw them as protecting us, guarding the nation. But i guess that's exactly what they are all doing. The experience also changes them, whether they themselves see it or not. The become much much more matured, and are no longer the boy they use to be. They meet pple of different backgrounds, drastic-ly different walks of life... and are no longer trapped in the world they grew up in. And so i realised how amidst their complaints and grumblings they are actually sacrificing so much for us. The senior said he lived through his training with support of his family, friends and his girlfriend. hahah. he so cute. He got the typical TJCian face too! haha... Den he told the guys in the audience not to worry abt their relationships being jeopardized while they are in NS. hahahaa.... i guess it depends, really. And this senior might juz be lucky and has a supportive and loyal girlfriend. haha. good for him.
But wadeva it is....
我向所有的阿兵哥致敬。
谢谢你们。
加油！
=P
I cant stand it le. i have to sleep. I just called Kee Liang and Yvonne. I cant complete the stuff by tomorrow. sorry. have to SLEEP. argh. life is hectic.

Konnichiwa!!!
I am so completely drained and very tyode (tired.) BUT. i have to jot down today. Its something to never forget.
Today was the Youth Exchange Programme - Japan, Taiwan, Singapore.
Had so much fun. The japs were very very very very very nice. So super enthu over everything. haha.
7am - Arrive in school
Arrived to see 2 jap students already dere. Its super obvious, cuz no one wears such thick jackets with a million badges pinned on in sunny singapore. So went over and talked to them. Met the two japs' host, Justin, from Ngee Ann Poly. Den the two japs were really kawaii! One is Akane(aka-neh), one is Haruka. Akane looks like Hilary Duff. Total lookalike. Haruka is shorter, smaller, but also as adorable. We chatted for a while before almost everyone else arrived.
This girl waved at me and gave me a very cheery smile. So i walked over and talk to her. Her name is Yui (You-Ee) and she is so nice~~~Stuck with her most of the time throughout the day, went shopping together, fed the fishes together, chit-chatted alot etc. she's so nice and sweet. haha.
8am - Concert
Starting to find communication a rather troublesome problem. Had to resort to hand sign alot of times. They speak and understand minimal english (meaning when i speak, they don understand. When they speak, i don understand.) and my jap is like... i noe less than 10 sentences lor. Only those "Hello", "Thank you", "Good morning", "Goodbye", "cute", "Haven't decided", "where", "Watashi wa Joyce des" Which everyone knows. Plus all those "Hai!" haha. so crap. Somemore Kee Liang went to learn jap just for this ocassion. And everyone else seem to know alot of jap. at least, so much more than me la.
Than we watched the national day concert.Yui fell asleep watching it, hahaha... the C.O part.(no offence to CO members) Then we had mass dance, which i dunno. Than the jap students joined in and oh my, they can dance better than the whole board put together lor. ooOps.
11am - Lunch time
Had fun eating with the exchange students. But it was hard remembering all their names. 14 jap names can kill. argh. worse part, they all remember my name, "joy-ce ne." Spent the rest of the day remembering all 14 names and put them to the right faces. no joke.
2pm - IMM shopping mall
I don understand why the student were brought to IMM. I mean, IMM has nothing. No clothes, no trendy acessories the jap likes, don even have souveniers or wadeva. It has furnitutre only lor. and Giant. and some hypermart. geez. Din noe how to explain to Yui, Asami and Hiromi. Just told them "Donch haf here." Then Yui wanted ice cream, so we bought these BIG cone ice creams and i tried the turkish ice cream. haha. quite ok la. After that we went to walk walk, before realising there is nothing to walk. We went down to Burger King, which they tell us they don haf in japan? At least Nagasaki doesn. They were totally fascinated and so happy when George said he treating them. The cashiers were so happy seeing these japs they gave us a free large coke. hahah. so we shared. Then rushed to take a neoprint. Cuz the 3 of them say they always take, and muz take. haha. so cute. I saw Yui's neoprint book. gosh. its as thick as 2 of my shou jis. every page filled with small neoprint stickers. wow. i tink she can open a neoprint building le.
3:30pm - Fish farm
Haha... i tot fish farm would be boring. but it was so funny and interesting. The host families bought alot of fish food and everyone was feeding the koi in the pond. The kois are all over-enthu. They jump and rush to just one pathetic morsel of food. haha. later we held the fish food in our hand and close our hand tight. Put our hands inside the pond, so the koi would smell the food and rush to "kiss" our hands. hahah. so funny. but so fun. Than Yui and Asami went to play the swings, and Chiemi, Hiromi went to play the see-saw. Was laughing with them when i noticed the huge sign "For children only". OOOps. nvm. afterall they don understand the sign. ya~y! continue playing.
5pm - OrchidVille
Went to see orchids. Took alot of photos and the jap girls all put orchids in their hair. SO pretty. so cute. Then we all sat down and chit chat etc.
6pm - Siglap South CC
Went there for a talk and dinner. The speaker could only speak english. So one other person had to translate into chinese for the Taiwanese, while another has to translate into jap. So basically whatever they were saying, u hear it 3 times, in diff languages. haha. Dinner was good. But i din really eat cuz going out with mom and dad and tim for dinner. Sat with Akane and Mina and talk to them while they eat.
When we announced that we were leaving, they all came and took photos with us. All gave us such warm hugs its almost enought to bring tears to your eyes. Then they gave me their name cards, and we promised to keep in touch through e-mail. And by that last farewell, i am quite sure i remember all their names.
Yui
Asami
Nozomi
Haruka
Hiromi
Chiemi
Mina
Akane
Kazuko
So
Ryuji
Kanako
Hikari
Yoko
see? i rememer. Before we left, we went back to the bbq pit where they were having bbq, and said this zoto... dunno wad sentence to them. It means "Never will forget". Everyone came forward to hug us again and i told Yui i will send her the photos through e-mail. And Akane. Mina. Yoko too.
The japs are so cute. I miss them already. Hope they enjoy the rest of their short stay in Singapore. U noe they keep saying thank you. I think cuz in jap they always use the 不好意思, i tink they somehow tink Thank you has the same use. haha. So they say sank you (thank you)sank you super loud all the time. I seriously mean all the time. Haha. Dats why at alot of instances u see me and them trying to communicate=鸡跟鸭讲话. Den i will start my hand signs. "Fishoo farme." then do fish swimming.... hahaha. hahahaha. And oh ya, the jap girls really know how to dress, all very cool, trendy and cute. Also quite good looking, i can picture some of them being drawn as anime. can fit eh. hahha....
It's been really fun. really memorable. though cant deny it IS super tiring. sigh. wont be seeing them again. unless i go Japan. Nagasaki, Osaka, Kagoshima and all their hometowns one by one. haha...
Tsukaremashita(I'm tired)

Smash!!!
Roar. Was in the sports com bathroom with my whole class (remember? only 1 and 1/2 guys.) and they were changing for PE. Suddenly there was this deafening "piang!" sound. We realised the window, the high one at the end, had been smashed by some ball. The guys were playing ball outside the window and had smashed the window. geez. And the most scary thing was Geraldine and Gladys were standing there waiting for the toilets just a few seconds before the smashing window thing. And the exact moment Gladys closed her door after getting into the cubicle, the window smashed. Thank goodness. At first i even thought Gladys banged the door too hard or something and something fell. But realised it was a glass sorta crash and saw the broken window. roar! Gladys said from tomorrow on she's gonna get rosary beads or something. that funny person.
Den just now got chased outta school by that uncle again. he wanted to lock the gates, as usual... and us and the SC and some other pple were like unwilling to leave cuz tomorrow got quite alot to prepare...
Haha... alot happened these days. but all daily rantings only. And been so busy couldn record it for your entertainment purposes. Roar. sorry. sigh. tomorrow gotta host the Japanese and Taiwanese students. hmm... for that i gave up:
-Charity concert with Hui Min acting...
-A trip to seoul garden with Jaime, Chen Si, Li Si.
-My sleep!!! Tomorrow gotta get to sch by 7.
Haha... that day when i arrived at 7:20, and saw Eunice get off her dad's car too, we both asked each other wad the time wuz, cuz it is super unusual to arrive so early, esp for the both of us. haha. must be exceptionally smooth traffic dat dae.
But still looking forward to tomorrow. haha. gotta stand at the front by the flag pole tomorrow, the place where the SC stands, cuz they say must let the exchange students AA(attract attention) a bit, and must let them get a full view of the student population etc. haha. wadeva. see everyone soon.

After that when waiting for dad met Kun Ying. Haha. suprise suprise. Today the two buddy-brothers Andrew and Kun Ying both threw a suprise each on me. Andrew also came out of nowhere and started running in front of us at the traffic light area at about 7 just when i left sch, he was chasing his 229. I just had time to exclaim "Andrew? I tot u went home?" and to hear his reply "Hi Joyce." I was still in shock when i got to interchange, cuz i seriously remembered VERY clearly i saw Andrew leave school with Si Xiong... Then i met this Kun ying who also appeared out of nowhere and told me he walked from school to the mrt bus stop where i was. haha. Then we crapped a little before he and i both left. He still won tell me where he stays, juz kept saying "我住在那遥远的西方。" west. Hmm... Clementi? Jurong? Dover? Queenstown? Red Hill? heh. wadeva.
Oh yeah. Today, i feel very flattered. again. Firstly, Jaime told me my 四月份创作 is very well done. She said the language very chim and she said my 程度 very good. Haha. which i found funny. Cuz its ironic, since i thinks her 程度 is the best le. And even if it isn so, my chinese has never been good lor. Just passable... so-so. Then 木木学长 read the 创作稿, den wif his mouth kinda hanging open, he came and told me it is very very good. He said he use to think i was this 小妹妹, but after reading my writings, he said 他对我另眼相看。He said 原来我长大了，through my writings i proved this and that. He also kept saying my 感情描绘得很细腻，很真实，很感人。And after reading that 创作稿, he said he is too overwhelmed to think of his own. huh???? So i read my own chuangzuo 5 whole times, but still, i am unable to see what evoked such great response, esp from 木木学长。hMMMmmm...真的好吗？应该让老师去投稿吗？
I tink today i accidently inhaled laughing gas. I laughed half the 古文 lesson. And me and Jaime laughed for more than 15min non-stop after sch when slacking. Cuz of ChengYu and YuBo la. haha... everytime i call yubo, i will think of the 成语：余波未了. heh. but thats not wad we laughed about. haha. haha. just tinking of it makes me wan to laugh again. Tomorrow going on the CPF learning journey wif Jaime. I hope no more hiccups on my B.O.D side... hah.
Oh. i better go work on my July chuangzuo. argh. still don haf much inspiration leh. HOW????????

新＝没归属感
最近常听到语特的人说 :
"新的LEP room没有了归属感。"
尤其是学兄学姐门。
也难怪，
他们毕竟在Old LEP room一年多了，
对那里产生了某种感情
在那里储存了许多酸甜苦辣。
别说是他们
我们都这样了，
不是吗？
对我而言，
它好象只是个电视台拍摄的地点
太干净
太整齐
太假。
它不是那个我们可以自由吃泡面的地方。
那时没有人在乎，
因为那是语特学生的天下
不是外人到访的必经之地。
现在似乎就是你我他
和
新传媒新闻台的家。
[haha... 刚和学长谈话是这样的。]

Do you care?
I miss all of you at school!!!!
Another lousy day at home. Starting to realise how precious u guys are...
这都市
拥挤得令人窒息 喧哗得令人作呕
层层叠叠的面孔 嘻嘻哈哈的对话中
有没有一颗心 属于我
他们说 星空中
有一颗星 是你
可是这城市的灯火糜烂 乌云密布
我看不到你
在异乡 有万顷晴空
也有迷人的色彩
那时 请为我导航

I like this alot!!! =)Just tot i'll borrow it. hee.
After the few days of not being in sch, I realise i do matter to pple. I have friends that really care. Li Si, Chen Si, Jaime, Hui Min, THANKS!!!!!*hugz*
Saturday, i went to HC homecoming carnival with Li Si and Jaime. I was supposedly meeting Chor Ming at HC, he sounded pretty excited and he told me to call him when i got there. Li Si was to look for her sec sch fren and Jaime, her HC frenz. However last min on the cab to hwa Chong, Chor Ming called, all apologetic that he had to leave sch to do this ushering job somewhere. I asked him to go ahead and don wait for me le (afterall, u noe how long it takes from my sch to his sch.). When i told Jaime and Li Si, it was decided that i can follow Jaime. Which i did. And i was really quite suprised and touched that Jaime actually did stick with me. She didn't rush off to her hc frenz she missed so much, but kept by my side. THANKS, Jaime, it mattered alot. I did have fun, meeting Jaime's 黄成 frenz, seeing Soon Kiat, Si Yu, Zhao Chen, Jing Di, Meng Ni etc again. I also saw Zhi Qing and Si Ya, both looking very very happy. haha. Then i stayed to watch the mass dance and saw ZQ right at the front, as usual. And now i noe what pple mean when they tell me, "Your friend can really dance." haha.
Earlier on that day was the IP openhouse. Integrated Programme. Gosh, i hate that phrase. Why do they have to do this to us? First NJ, then HC, now us. WHY? They're ruining the five of us (HC, NJ, RJ. VJ and us.)at this rate they're going. Ok, back to the IP openhouse. Nobody was exceptionally happy except the principal i tink. Firstly, one look arnd the sch and u see more green pple (aka TJCians) than non-green pple. Secondly, the green pple don look very happy. I have a feeling i am not the only one condemning this IP thing. The CCC performed on the stage under LT1, and the audience were ALL TJCians. And mostly CCC members, and me. and some stray Taekwondo pple. Desperately trying to 搞气氛。But it's seriously not our fault that those sec 2 kids don appreciated entertainment. LEP was a LITTLE more crowded, when i got there, there was this grotty sec 2 R.I boy in shorts whom i was told is my first junior. How exciting. He got this attitude problem and a really 欠扁 and arrogant face. exactly the way my NJ frenz described their IP juniors.
But one plus point. The college expected alot of pple. So they prepared alot of food. So we got to eat it. And the food was GOOD. *Grinz* HC homecoming was considerably much more happening and fun, seeing how we bang into HC couples the whole time who are all so super obvious(much obvious compared to TJ couples) and that there were fewer kids around.
